Abstract
Given the exponential increase of fabrication costs, the global recession and credit crunch, one may ask if Moore´s law is financially viable beyond 22 nm node. Can we justify the return-of-investment (ROI) for continuous scaling beyond 22 nm? Shall we consider other alternatives for integration, such as silicon-in-a-package (SiP) or 3D integrations?
